AE Donation Drive: A “Tough, Angry SOB” Needs Your Support

No I’m not happy and I’m damn proud of it!

I was asked a few months back by a close friend from my previous life if I was “happy”.  At the time I was unable to reply as well as I wanted. “Happy” never really factored into the equation or at least it hadn’t for quite some time. I simply can’t fathom how “happiness” can be my focus when there is so much wrong, so little time to fix it and so few attempting to report the truth about it.

Today I came across a quote from MarketWatch columnist Brett Arends which helped me understand my perspective on happiness a little better :

“Do you want to know what kind of person makes the best reporter? I’ll tell you. A borderline sociopath. Someone smart, inquisitive, stubborn, disorganized, chaotic, and in a perpetual state of simmering rage at the failings of the world. Once upon a time you saw people like this in every newsroom in the country. They often had chaotic personal lives and they died early of cirrhosis or a heart attack. But they were tough, angry SOBs and they produced great stories.

Self Radicalized Old Person Mows Down Dozens With Buick. Bill to Ban Cars Pending

by Scott Creighton

Apparently he wrote a confession on his Depends undergarments while trapped in the car. He wrote that he was sick of being old and that he forgot what he was supposed to be writing. Then, cryptically, he wrote something about Nancy Drew and Seinfeld. Anonymous FBI sources say that means he’s a “Truther” and planned to go to New York next.

Ray McGovern is calling this “blowback” for taking Matlock off the air.

‘Video shows Israeli special forces in Syria’ and Israeli Tanks in Occupied Golan Heights in Violation of International Law

(The Fox News story can be found here. The Fox reporter stands in the occupied Golan Heights, calling it “Israel” and filmed Israeli commandos returning from inside Syria after a mission. Then he goes on to show Israeli tanks, in the Golan Heights, in violation of international law, claiming they were there to protect “Israel”. The Fox reporter goes on to say the international agreement regarding the Golan Heights has been “ripped up due to recent developments”)

from Press TV

Fox News has published a video allegedly showing Israeli special forces on a mission inside the Syrian soil.

The American news network added that it “captured, for the very first time, Israeli commandos coming back from inside Syria on a mission.”

The report does not specify how or where the film has been captured. But it appears to be near the occupied Golan Heights. Israel has recently boosted military activities in the area.

Boston Bombing: Ray McGovern Props Up Boat-side Scribble Confession AND Umar Fizzlepants Story

by Scott Creighton

UPDATE: As Kenny (from kenny’s sideshow) points out, our boy Ray went on RT the other day and propped up the Benghazi psyop story as well. The guests on the show kept running away from questions about why Stevens was there (shipping arms and terrorists from Libya to Syria) and what was the CIA “compound” used for in the first place. It was the host who kept bringing up questions about Stevens’ role in the destabilization campaign from the start and ONLY the host called it a “regime change operation” while the guests, including Ray McGovern, kept making one excuse after another for our presence there.  Stevens does go on and on about us being the prime motivation behind the “terrorists” attacks.

Then Ray goes on after the break to distance himself from the 9/11 Truth movement claiming he never blamed Bush (or the other administration officials) for “Letting it Happen”(LIHOP) and goes even further to quote from the flawed 9/11 Commission Report as to WHY they say the “terrorists” did it. Not a word from Ray about that confession he committed to memory being from a guy who was tortured repeatedly until he “confessed” what Ray recited on RT. Not a word.

Ray’s position is the original CIA “blowback” narrative of 9/11… “the truth that no one wants to hear” according to Ray McGovern. Based of course on confessions garnered by torture.

Definition of cross agency co-operation: A former CIA agent helping a former FBI agent with his troubled propaganda, published on an NSA “alternative” website

Ray McGovern has penned an article that is beaming with support for the new propaganda told to us by John Miller of CBS “News” (formerly an FBI director). AntiWar then re-posted it uncritically.

“Quick, somebody tell CIA Director John Brennan about the handwriting on the inside wall of the boat in which Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was hiding before Boston-area police riddled it and him with bullets. Tell Brennan that Tsarnaev’s note is in plain English and that it needs neither translation nor interpretation in solving the mystery: “why do they hate us?”: Ray McGovern

Ray never even considers the odd timing of the outrageous claim made by the former FBI director and how convenient it is for the prosecution and the official narrative of this case. He never even addresses the fact that this new “evidence” come from secret unnamed sources or the fact that this new note seems to say the exact same thing they got in their “confession” garnered prior to reading the 19 year old kid his rights. All that eludes the former CIA agent making one wonder just how effective he was back in his glory days as a “Company” man.

But, that not being enough, Ray goes on to complete the Twofer and he props up the old Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab (Umar Fizzlepants) story as well.

In the “OH SHIT!” File: Dead SEALs’ families blame Washington for 2011 attack in Afghanistan

(Just three months after the staged bin Laden psyop, 17 of the SEALS involved were put on an old Vietnam era helicopter and sent into an area where some “terrorists” had been told to wait for them with a surface to air missile?)

from Press TV

The families of US commandos killed in a 2011 downing of a helicopter in eastern Afghanistan have blamed Washington for the attack and the ensuing cover-up, a report says.

The White House is responsible for the shooting down and subsequent cover-up of the Navy Chinook helicopter carrying 38 people onboard including 17 members of SEAL Team Six in August 2011, the Washington Times quoted the parents of the deceased on May 9.

The family members said the US President Barack Obama’s administration and other White House officials “put a target on their backs” after they announced Osama bin Laden’s killers as SEAL Team Six.

Taliban militants also received leaked information from the US government regarding the landing site of the helicopter, which made the chopper vulnerable to attack, the families added.

Russia Steps Up in Syria – Sends Warships to the Mediterranean and Advanced Air Defense Systems to Assad

by Scott Creighton

Israeli attack on Syria and our escalating warmongering rhetoric backfires, bringing Russia into the game in a big way.

It’s being reported by several news organizations that Russia under Vladimir Putin has suddenly stepped up to the plate with regard to aiding the Syrian government and their people in the ongoing U.S./Israeli/Qatar terrorist destabilization campaign.

Several notable and highly visible steps have been taken by Russia in the past few days which make it perfectly clear in the wake of Israel’s illegal bombing of Syria and Putin’s meeting with “Nuclear Duck” Netanyahu that Russia is not going to stand by and do nothing while our contractors and the IDF kill innocent people in Syria.

But as welcome as this news is, that Russia is finally stepping up and helping Syria in more ways that just talk, I can’t say it’s simply because it’s the right thing to do. Once again, it’s all about money, natural resources and one group’s access to them and another’s loss.  It’s just another part of the Great Game to dominate and control the earth’s natural resources.

BLACK AGENDA TV – “Black Diamonds”: South Africa’s Black Millionaires Act as Middlemen for Corporate Power

(When you listen to this, the young activist Glen speaks to talks about how after apartheid fell, the state under the ANC couldn’t live up to the promises of the new constitution because the leaders made the mistake of allowing the IMF and World Bank in with loans and they forced neoliberal economic austerity on them in exchange. It was a horrific mistake. He talks about how the push was for “smaller government” and privatizations across the board. So even when the people rise up and take down institutional corruption and near fascism (as was the case under apartheid South Africa) the economic hitmen can still come in and achieve the same goals. For those of you who still support the idea of “small government” libertarianism, I just wanted to point this out. “Small government” was a policy agenda of every president from Reagan and Clinton (yes, Clinton was an advocate of “smaller government” long before you and Ron Paul were) to Bush and Obama. It’s called the Washington Consensus for a reason.)

Boston Bombing: New Breathtakingly Stupid Propaganda from CBS This Morning and Former FBI Director

by Scott Creighton

“UNSCANNABLE!”

When you watch this “news” segment from CBS This Morning, your IQ will drop by at least 40 points. That’s not hyperbole, that’s not an exaggeration for effect… that’s a Goddamned fact. You will be dumber for the rest of your life because it’s so completely absurd it will destroy braincells, they will become so depressed that they live in you they will kill themselves inside your skull for having been exposed to it.

It’s … just…. that… stupid.

It’s just so stupid.. it’s just so fucking stupid.

The segment starts with Charlie Rose making his “this is serious news” face which is supposed to set the tone. He claims this “new evidence” is “only” going to be reported by CBS This Morning (meaning it’s their product and theirs alone) and personally I wonder if that is reason enough to arrest everyone involved in the making of that idiotic show on charges of being accessories after the fact. They should arrest the robotic cameras while they’re at it. They should arrest the people that made the TVs you watch it on and the guys on the docks who unloaded them off the freighters. It’s just that stupid.
